Place the following actions that should be done for baby girl C immediately after birth from most important to least important. (ORDERED RESPONSE)
Suction the baby as needed
Teach mother how to do cord care
Dry the baby
Apply identification bracelets to mother and baby
The Correct Answer is C, A, D, B
Drying the baby is the most important first step to prevent heat loss and initiate thermoregulation. Suctioning is needed if there are signs of airway obstruction but is secondary to ensuring the baby’s warmth. Applying identification bracelets is necessary to ensure proper identification but is not as critical as ensuring the baby is warm and breathing. Teaching the mother cord care can be done after addressing more immediate concerns such as warmth and identification.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. Genetic testing is not necessary to determine if the twins are identical. Identical twins come from the same egg, while fraternal twins come from separate eggs.
B. The size difference alone does not determine whether twins are identical or fraternal.
C. Dizygotic twins (fraternal twins) are always of different sexes. This is because they are fertilized by two separate sperm and develop from two separate eggs.
D. Monozygotic twins (identical twins) occur when one fertilized egg splits into two embryos. The fact that they are different sexes rules out the possibility of monozygotic twins.
